Commentary, sarcasm and snide remarks from a Florida resident of over thirty years. Being a glutton for punishment is a requirement for residency here. Who am I? I've been called a moonbat by Michelle Malkin, a Right Wing Nut by Daily Kos, and middle of the road by Florida blog State of Sunshine. Tell me what you think.

The Knucklehead of the Day award

Today's winner is Susan Keating. The Panama City Florida woman would drive around her hometown selling drugs such as cocaine and marijuana. That isn't why she gets the award, its because she used her 10-year-old to help with her business.

A mother of the year candidate. NOT! For using her son in an illegal business and probably endangering him at the same time, Susan Keating is today's Knucklehead of the day.

PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) -- A Panama City woman was accused of forcing her 10-year-old son to help her sell cocaine and marijuana.

Susan Keating, 47, was charged with drug possession and child neglect after investigators with the Bay County Sheriff's Office searched her home Friday evening and found cocaine, marijuana and other controlled substances, according to police reports.

Following her arrest, investigators spoke with her 10-year-old son, who said Keating made him carry bags of "white stuff" in his pockets, according to reports.

The boy said he knew what he was doing was against the law but his mother told him to do it anyway, investigators said.

Keating often drove around Panama City with the boy to sell drugs, investigators said. The boy told investigators he had been riding around with his mother for about two to three weeks, police said.

Keating declined comment. Her son was turned over to the Florida Department of Children & Families.
